Using DOSBox Launcher

Preparation, according to your platform

1. Download and install DOSBox (www.dosbox.com), if not done already.
2. Download and run DOSBox Launcher.

Configuration

If you start DOSBox Launcher for the first time you have to set-up a few things.

1. Select the base-folder where you will store your DOS games. Put each game into a separate folder underneath.
   Example folder structure:
   

   \DOS-Games       <- base-folder
      \First Game
      \Next Game
      \...
   

2. Select the DOSBox executable to use when starting games.

If you would like to support development of DOSBox Launcher it would be nice to let the "send anonymized usage stats" option activated.

Data privacy disclaimer

The "send anonymized usage stats" function is sending small bits of data to a service hosted on my personal web server. I do not share these information with any other party. The data bits do not contain any personal information. Only purpose is to give me an impression of how often the app is used by others than myself.

Add/Edit Game

Click the "Add" button to set-up your first game configuration. Fill out at least the fields

• Name of game
• Folder to mount as C:\
• start executable

Hint: If you first click the "select folder" (...) button next to the "Folder to mount as C:" field, the "Name of game" field will be set to the folder name automatically.

Run game

The main window shows a list of the configured DOS applications / games. A double click on a game entry starts the respective game.
